Allright, we're starting the necks, I'm making 2 out of Hard Rock Maple and 2 out of Flame Maple, all 4 will have Brazilian Rosewood fingerboards. So far I've planed the maple blocks and Rosewood down to a workable thickness, traced around my patterens with a Sharpe, now we're ready to saw'em out.
Sawing out a '63 Ventures style neck.
Sawing out one of the '62 Maphis style necks.
I've attached a shaping template to back of the neck blank and began pin routing the neck profile.
Free-hand routing the truss rod channel.
Here I'm profiling the fingerboards, first sawing them to shape, then finishing up with the beltsander, gettin' them ready to glue on the necks.
